Lawless

Lawless is the Servamp of Greed and has a contract with Licht Jekylland Todoroki. He often quotes Shakespeare and is a good fighter.

Appearance
He has spiky yellow-blonde with dark brown streaks with slim, dark red eyes and red square-frame glasses.

Background
He once had a good relationship to the man who created the Servamps - he describes him as a father figure.

One of his Eves was a woman named Ophelia. He seemed to be in love with her, but she married another man in order to restore peace to her country. Lawless was deeply hurt and also worried about her. Despite her efforts to restore peace, the marriage was a ploy to win the trust of the kingdom in order to overthrow them. Ophelia offers herself as sacrifice in order to inspire her citizens and ensure her death had meaning for the kingdom. Lawless from then on sat at her statue and defended it.

Around the same time, C3 ordered the Servamps to kill the person who had created them. To decide on the controversial matter, the Servamps decided to hold a survey to determine the fate of their creator. Having just lost Ophelia to humanity and fearing losing the last piece of human family he had left, Lawless objected to the notion. With the vote split three to three, the oldest Servamp, Sleepy Ash, was the deciding factor. He reluctantly agreed that it was best that the creator be killed and was sent to finish the job himself. This decision was enough to cause a one-sided dispute between Lawless and his brother for years to come.

When Lawless returned "home" he recognized that the war had began, and the statue of Ophelia was destroyed. This furthers his image of fault in human kind and justifies his belief that "No one can hatch from their cocoon and become a butterfly." In response, Lawless begins to devalue human lives in response to the tragedy that had befallen Ophelia and the Creator.

He was the Servamp of an American actress and went to Licht's concert. When he saw Licht, he decided to make him his new Eve. After going back to his current Eve, he kills her.

Lawless then meets with Licht in his hedgehog form and tricks him. He is named Hyde and forms a contract. When showing himself as the vampire he is, Licht attempts to murder him to rid the world of demons like him.

Story
Lawless accompanies Licht to a concert in Japan, what infact was a trick by Tsubaki who pretended to be a relative to Licht in order to lure them to Japan.

At the concert Lawless realizes, that all of the audience are vampires and when they try to attack him, Lawless kills all of them (about 2,000). Only two managed to survive - Berukia and Lilac.

After the concert Lawless and Licht part ways. Somehow Lawless was captured by Tsubaki. When he awakes in Tsubakis HQ he is unable to move and believes he can hear Licht's voice. He soon realizes, it really is Lichts voice. The two of them start to argue about what happened if Licht dies, and so the argument escalates and Licht manages to kick through the wall.

Just when the two of them unified against Tsubaki and his subclass - Tsubaki succseeds in defeating Lawless. Lawless loses all of his power and starts to get a cry baby.

When C3 arrived and scared Tsubaki away, the two of them go to Mahiru's. There C3 appeares again and lure Licht away with melons. Lawless can't belive what happens, but he can't stop his naive Eve and follows him.

After Tsurugi Kamiya went on a rampage in the C3 headquarter, Lawless and Licht promised to stop him on behalf of Mahiru and Kuro who were no longer able to fight. They later met up with Wraith who revealed that her Eve had died of old age. After Lawless pleaded for her to join the fight in order to save her subclass and stop the enemy on for the sake of Mahiru who saved both him and Kuro, she stated that Lawless had "grown up".

Personality
Lawless is self-centered and particularly emotional. After Ophelia's sacrifice, Lawless lost all motivation in living for himself and rather chases after the shadow of Ophelia's desires. He has no faith in the world and would much rather bring his Eves to the ground to prove his own selfish belief. He is sensitive and stubborn, and he typically acts impulsively to block any suspicion of his actions. For this reason, he is regarded as being unconventional and otherwise very dangerous.

Through Licht, it is revealed that Lawless simply has no aspirations for himself and is otherwise driven by nothing but his own loneliness. Unlike his Eve who is accustom to loneliness, Lawless is shown to long for someone to love him, and his extravagant methods of switching Eves was only a means of refusing to face this fact. Overall, however, Lawless is extremely energetic and obnoxious. He has no trouble poking fun at others and tends to introduce himself and others through extravagant means. Lawless tends to be self-serving but an otherwise positive presence.
